Fairly new to all of this. What will this do and what is the benefit of this? Thanks.

Says it's bolt and go 8HP give or take. This won't require a retune? They're 100% confident of it not needing a tune?

Spend your money elsewhere. The stock TB can flow enough air for something rediculous like 600 hp(maybe even more). Do some research and you will see I'm right. Check one of the "other" forums and there are plenty of people who know (the hard way) that this is true.

This TB was tested I think in Muscle Mustangs. And no, it didn't require a tune. It didn't throw any codes or anything. And it still made like 8hp. I wonder what it can do without a tune!

+1 - there are even some on THIS forum who can tell you about TB's. MusicCityGT for one off the top of my head. Do your research. Lethal PSI is not claiming anything just offerring them so don't hold it against them. They are a stand up company. But do your research and you'll find out about aftermarket TB concerns.

MM&FF could test a bucket of cow **** and give it a good review of the cow was one of their advertisers.

+1000

Every part most magazines test it great, wonderfull, and totally works and will give you alot of power. I havent heard anything good about aftermarket throttle bodies.

I have tried some of those so called miricle parts in the past, Demon carburators are one example. I put one on a new motor and pulled my hair out with it for a month. Biggest POS carbs going with horrible tech support. And we know what we are doing tuning wise, I never saw anything like this.

Threw on a holley of same spec, all the problems dissapeared. In fact summit racing refuses to sell them anymore due to problems.

He is absolutely right. Save the money and the headaches. I had nothing but trouble for a lousy two H/P and a lot of time in failsafe.
